THEORETICAL PROBLEMS OF MODERN LINGUISTICS METAPHTONYMY OF JOY AND HAPPINESS IN THE BELARUSIAN LANGUAGE O. V. Gordey Undergraduate student, Belarusian State University, Minsk, Belarus Summary. This paper analyzes the metaphtonymic projection displaying emotions of joy and happiness by means of non-verbal communication in the Belarusian language. The object of the study are idioms that reflect the emotional state of a person by means of non-verbal communication. The study is based on the conceptual English metaphors, defined by J. Lakoff, M. Johnson, Z. Kövecses et al. Key words: metaphor; metonymy; metaphtonymy; emotion. Like each of the fundamental emotions, joy has unique characteristics. Joy is expressed though smiling and laughter, easily recognized signs of enjoy- ment [2, p. 134]. According to Belarusian phraseological units, a person who experiences pleasure and joy should: выскаляць зубы (grin), сушыць зубы (dry one’s teeth), зубы грэць на сонцы (sun one’s teeth), прадаваць зубы (sell one’s teeth), на ўсе застаўкі смяяцца (laugh wide and loud), на ўсе трыццаць два зубы (with all thirty-two teeth), на ўвесь рот смяяцца (yawn with one’s mouth open wide), у кулак смяяцца (laugh behind one’s hand), у рукаў смяяцца (laugh in one’s sleeve), надрываць жывот ад смеху (incise one’s stomach), качацца ад смеху (swing with laughter), паехаць ад смеху (ride with laughter), паміраць са смеху (die from laughter), бакі рваць ад смеху (incise one’s body), also вясёлыя чорцікі скачуць у вачах (funny little devils are jumping in one’s eyes) and рот да вушэй (have one’s mouth to the ears), etc. A major metaphor conceptualizing happiness is HAPPINESS OR JOY IS A FLUID IN A CONTAINER, which in turn comes from a more general – THE EMOTION IS A FLUID IN A CONTAINER, e.g. бакі рваць ад смеху, надрываць жывот ад смеху, паміраць са смеху, вясёлыя чорцікі скачуць у вачах, where the containers are the body, stomach and eyes. 5 Figure 1 – Interaction of conceptual metaphor HAPPINESS OR JOY IS A FLUID IN A CONTAINER and metonymy Z. Kövecses claims that the metaphorical concept of joy in English is – HAPPY IS LIGHT [3, p. 24]. The same is about Belarusian language. Вясёлыя чорцікі скачуць у вачах – these expression is motivated by the experiential basis underlying it. When one becomes happy, his or her complex- ion and eyes turn brighter. The brightness is then an assumed expressive re- sponse observed in happiness. The light appears to derive from the internal en- ergy characteristic of a happy person [1, p. 2392]. This example of the interaction between metaphor and physiological metonymy is discussed below. Figure 2 – Interaction of conceptual metaphor HAPPY IS LIGHT and metonymy. The link between emotions and physiological symptoms reflects certain metonymic mappings and the cause-effect relationship. That’s why Z. Kövecses 6 and G. Lakoff (1987) have postulated a general metonymic principle: THE PHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF AN EMOTION STAND FOR THE EMO- TION [1, p. 2385]. Figure 3 – Interaction of conceptual metaphor THE EFFECTS OF AN EMOTION STAND FOR THE EMOTION and metonymy. The Belarusian phraseological units have been reviewed through the range of conceptual English metaphors, defined by J. Lakoff, M. Johnson, Z. Kövecses et al. Among the most appropriate for Belarusian language are HAPPINESS OR JOY IS A FLUID IN A CONTAINER, HAPPY IS LIGHT, THE PHYSIOLOG- ICAL EFFECTS OF AN EMOTION STAND FOR THE EMOTION. Bibliography 1.

  • Boutique Hotels Segment the Challenge of Standing out from the Crowd
    SEPTEMBER 2011 BOUTIQUE HOTELS SEGMENT THE CHALLENGE OF STANDING OUT FROM THE CROWD Cristina Balekjian Associate Lara Sarheim Associate Director www.hvs.com HVS – London Office| 7‐10 Chandos Street, Cavendish Square, London W1G 9DQ, UK Introduction Interest in boutique hotels, despite the relative slow down in the global economy, remains overwhelming. It is an exciting segment of the market particularly within Europe’s gateway cities. New investors are keen to enter the market and established hotel operators are fast expanding and developing new concepts to compete in this sector. With the boutique hotel market now truly established, operators have recently reported data that suggests their hotels are outperforming the competing corporate chains, especially during the recession. Developing/evolving consumer habits can help to explain this growth as guests are becoming more aware of design, expect a higher level of service, and are increasingly seeking an experience instead of a commoditised product. Guests increasingly want to feel recognised and like to feel part of a unique experience. Boutique hotels are generally accepted to be small (100 rooms appears to be the invisible boundary) and are therefore better placed to react as their limited capacity enables them to enhance the quality of service and customise their outlets. In the majority of cases, large‐scale hotels need to cater to a significant number of guests, and thus struggle to compete with the personal service afforded by a small boutique operation that can take into consideration the preference of each individual guest. Furthermore, (independent) boutique hotel owners often do not have to comply with brand standards, thus developers can more easily convert an existing building into a design led‐hotel that welcomes varying floor levels and layouts rather than having to conform to minimum room sizes and specific FF&E standards imposed by most brands.
